Objective:To investigate the cognitive-related networks of patients with different cognitive impairment related to white matter lesions (WMLs), and explore the correlation between the altered functional connectivity and the executive function.Methods:Patients with white matter lesions in Beijing Tiantan Hospital from January 2016 to December 2020 were selected , who were divided into WML-non-dementia vascular cognitive impairment (WML-VCIND) group( n=19)and WML-vascular dementia (VaD) group( n=19). At the same time, 24 normal control group (NC) with no cognitive impairment with age, gender and education level matched were enrolled. The Stroop B, Stroop C, trail making test(TMT-B) and verbal fluency test (VFT) were used to evaluate the executive function of all subjects. The ICA method was used to identity four cognitive-related RSNs: frontoparietal network (FPN), salience network (SN), default network (DMN), and dorsal attention network (DAN). Using SPSS 20.0 software, the functional connectivity (FC) of the regions of interest of the selected RSNs among the three groups were compared by analysis of covariance, and correlation between the altered FCs and executive function scores were explored by Spearman correlation analysis. Results:(1) The FC of the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC)-left inferior parietal lobe (IPL.L) in the VaD group(0.267±0.320) was significantly lower than that in the NC group (0.520±0.253)( P=0.005). The FC of MPFC-posterior cingulate (PCC) was significantly lower in the VaD group(0.655±0.284) than that in the VCIND group(0.810±0.232) ( P=0.017). The FC of MPFC-left insula and MPFC-left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC.L)was significantly higher in the VaD group(0.411±0.277, 0.545±0.311)than that in the VCIND group(0.239±0.308, 0.353±0.270)( P=0.044, 0.028). The FC of the left superior parietal lobe (SPL.L)-right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC.R) in the VCIND group(0.488±0.157) was significantly higher than that in the NC group(0.301±0.257) ( P=0.010). The FC of MPFC-left insula and MPFC-DLPFC.L was higher in NC group than that in VaD group ( P=0.020, 0.037). (2) The FC of MPFC-PCC was negatively correlated with Stroop C score ( r=-0.279, P=0.036), and TMT-B score ( r=-0.313, P=0.018). The FC of MPFC-IPL.L was negatively correlated with Stroop B score ( r=-0.311, P=0.018), Stroop C score( r=-0.308, P=0.020) and TMT-B score ( r=-0.367, P=0.005), while positively correlated with VFT score ( r=0.357, P=0.006). The FC of SPL.L-DLPFC.R was positively correlated with the Stroop B score ( r=0.305, P=0.021). Conclusion:There are certain differences in the functional connectivity between brain areas within the cognitive related brain networks, and the differences in FC between different brain areas are correlated with executive function scores. The changes of the FC may indicate possibly decline in executive function, which can explain the mechanism of cognitive declines.

Objective:To explore abnormal microstructural changes of white matter in patients with white matter lesions(WML) using diffusion tensor imaging(DTI), and to determine the association of such abnormalities of DTI parameters with executive function.Methods:Totally 34 patients with WML were recruited from the department of Neurology, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University from March 2012 to May 2019.All patients with WML were scored with Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) and Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA), and assessed with Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) and clinical dementia rating(CDR). They were divided into WML-cognitive normal group, WML-vascular cognitive impairment-non dementia group and WML-Dementia group.The Stroop color and word test (SCWT), trail making test-A (TMTA), digit symbol test and verbal fluency test were carried out to evaluate executive function.In addition, the healthy elderly without WML lesions were selected as the control group after they were examined by MRI, and all brains of the subjects went through DTI with Siemens 3.0 T MR.The data were collected and analyzed by voxel based analysis (VBA). The anisotropy and mean diffusion coefficient of DTI in the region of interest (ROI) and other regions in the brain were studied in the four groups, and their correlation with scores of executive function in WML patients was analyzed.Results:(1)In these executive function test, there were significant differences between the patients with cognitive impairment (WML-VAD group, WML-VCIND group) and normal cognition group(WML-CN group, NC group), such as SCWT(B)(65.54±6.24 vs 43.67±0.95, 76.75±2.13 vs 43.67±0. 95, 65.54±6.24 vs 43.66±1.81, 76.75±2.13 vs 43.66±1.81), SCWT(C)(88.58±6.76 vs 61.63±1.31, 96.37±1.47 vs 61 63±1.31, 88.58±6.76 vs 66.31±8.19, 96.37±1.47 vs 66.31±8.19), TMTA(40.47±2.76 vs 30.92±0.47, 44.24±1.43 vs 30.92±0.47, 44.24±1.43 vs 31.99±2.07, 40.47±2.76 vs 31.99±2.07), TMTB(88.66±6.55 vs 80.34±0.61, 96.70±1.72 vs 80.34±0.61, 88.66±6.55 vs 83.10±5.91, 96.70±1.72 vs 83. 10±5.91), Digit Symbol Test(39.25±5.63 vs 47.00±2.55, 31.27±3.93 vs 47.00±2.5, 39.25±5.63 vs 48.86±4.34, 31.27±3.93 vs 48.86±4.34) and Verbal Fluency Test(8.94±1.00 vs 11.71±0.47, 6.64±0.81 vs 11.71±0.47, 8.94±1.00 vs 10.86±0.69, 6.64±0.81 vs 10.86±0.69) scores ( P<0.05); In the patients with cognitive impairment, there were significant differences between WML-VAD group and WML-VCIND group, such as SCWT(B), SCWT(C), TMTA, TMTB, digit symbol test and verbal fluency test scores ( P<0.05); There were significant differences between WML-CN patients and NC group in the scores of SCWT (C), verbal fluency test( P<0.05). (2)FA values in the genu of corpus callosum and the inferior longitudinal fasciculus were negatively correlated with the time of SCWT (B), SCWT (C) and the TMTA( r=-0.436--0.471), but positively correlated with the scores of digit symbol test and verbal fluency test( r=0.428-0.573). MD values in the genu of corpus callosum, the superior/inferior longitudinal fasciculus and the inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus were positively correlated with the time of SCWT (B), SCWT (C) and TMTA( r=0.432~0.609), but negatively correlated with the scores of digit symbol test and verbal fluency test( r=-0.424--0.630, all P<0.003125 after emendation). Conclusion:The executive function of patients with WML-Dementia decreases significantly.The more serious the damage of white matter microstructure, the more serious the damage of executive of function.

Objective:To analyze the characteristic of nerve tracts in different stages of cognitive impairment caused by white matter hypertensities, applying diffusion tensor imaging-peak width of skeletonized mean diffusivity as evaluation indicator.Methods:Demographic characteristics and vascular risk factors of all subjects were recorded.Screened out 50 subjects without WMH and whose MoCA scale was more than or equal 26 points as normal control group.Then, we assessed 85 patients with WMH using the MoCA scale and clinical dementia assessment. Of 85 patients, 45 cases were divided into the normal cognition group, 23 cases were assigned into non-dementia vascular cognitive impairment group, and 17 cases into the vascular dementia group.The diffusion tensor imaging-peak width of skeletonized mean diffusivity marking method was used to compare the integrity of white matter fibers in WMH patients with varying degrees of cognitive impairment and normal control group.Results:The difference of PSMD among the four groups was statistically significant(CN group: 3.558±0.157, VCIND group: 4.128±0.222, VaD group: 5.469±0.000, NC group: 2.612±0.105, F=42.479, P<0.05). PSMD in WMH groups were higher than that in NC group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference between WMH-VCIND group and WMH-CN group ( P=0.067). The PSMD of WMH-VAD group was higher than that of WMH-CN group and WMH-VCIND group (both P<0.05). Conclusion:PSMD can accurately detect white matter fiber damage caused by WMH.The degree of WMH combined cognitive decline was not completely consistent with the degree of PSMD increase.Compared with the cases with normal WMH cognition, PSMD was not significantly increased when WMH was combined with VCIND, while PSMD was significantly increased when WMH was combined with VaD.DTI-PSMD value as imaging marker can provide objective basis for clinical diagnosis of WMH-VaD.

Objective To explore the expression and the changes of microtubule, aquaporin-4 (AQP4) and potassium ion channel 4.1 (Kir4.1) after spinal cord injury in rats.Methods Ninety female adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (n=30) and injury group (n=60). The injury group was divided into six hours, one day, three days, five days and seven days subgroups, with twelve rats in each subgroup. Spinal cord injury at T10 was established with modified Allen's method (20 g×25 mm) in the injury group. The water content of spinal cord was measured at each time point after injury. Then, the pathology was observed with HE staining, the expression of α-Tubulin, AQP4 and Kir4.1 was detected and analyzed with immunohistochemical staining and Western blotting.Results The water content of the spinal cord was higher in the injured group than in the sham operation group (P<0.05), and was highest on the fifth day. HE staining showed that the gray matter hemorrhage at six hours after injury; one day after injury, the gray matter bled seriously, and neuron swelling was aggravated; three days after injury, the area of gray matter necrosis increased, and the edema phenomenon was obvious; five days and seven days after injury, the gray matter necrosis and the edema phenomenon were more serious. Western blotting and immunohistochemistry showed that the expression of AQP4 gradually increased after injury, and raised at peak on the fifth day; the expression of α-Tubulin and Kir4.1 was similar, and the expression gradually decreased after injury, especially on the fifth day.Conclusion The expression of α-Tubulin and Kir4.1 is similar after spinal cord injury, and is contrary to the expression of AQP4. α-Tubulin, AQP4 and Kir4.1 may be related after injury and may participate in the formation of spinal cord edema.

Spinal edema is a very important pathophysiological basis for secondary spinal cord injury,which affects the repair and prognosis of spinal cord injury.Aquaporin-4 is widely distributed in various organs of the body,and is highly expressed in the brain and spinal cord.Inward rectifying potassium channel 4.1 is a protein found in astrocytes of central nervous system.It interacts with aquaporins in function.Aquaporin-4 and inward rectifying potassium channel 4.1 play an important role in the formation and elimination of spinal cord edema,inhibition of glial scar formation and promotion of excitotoxic agents exclusion.The distribution and function of aquaporin-4 and inward rectifying potassium channel 4.1 in the central nervous system and their expression after spinal cord injury have multiple effects on spinal edema.Studies of aquaporin-4 and inward rectifying potassium channel 4.1 in the spinal cord may provide new ideas for the elimination and treatment of spinal edema.
